Play, draw, read books?

On an inclement weather we have no choice but to stay indoors and think of activities to stave off the creeping boredom caused by power interruption . My kids end up reading non-academic books.

I was able to read a few pages of a book about preowned instruments for sale (I hope to finish reading it and write a short review about it).

We just enjoyed the stillness of the afternoon reading and chatting. But when power supply resume the following day, activities at home were back to normal, kids are spending more time in front of the computer.

How about your kids, what do they love to do during brownouts?
